Dao De Jing

Mr. McHugh teaches you, line-by-line, how to translate the Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching) of Lao Zi (Lao Tzu) from classical Chinese into English, even if you have never studied Chinese. The glossaries and index of key concepts are completely cross-referenced. The text is set in both Traditional and Simplified characters. There are phonetic transcriptions to help you look up the characters in the glossaries, illustrations (mainly sketches from classical Chinese artwork), and commentaries to help you understand the text. And, of course, there is Mr. McHugh's extremely accurate translation.
